The only edge Tesla has is the software stack. All the rest is meh. But it is kind of amazing that traditional carmakers are still struggling to catch up on the software front. To be honest, the whole auto industry is heading in a very bad direction, where they think of the car as a way to harvest data of their customers and to introduce their SaaS offerings

We've got an Tesla and an Volkswagen ID3. Tesla's charging planning is pretty good. Volkswagen's driving assistants are vastly superior to Tesla's (despite not being oversold as "autonomous driving").

IIRC, the first robotaxis are operated by companies owned by Google and General Motors, and the only car that has a licence for fully autonomous driving in Germany (up to 60 km/h, only on Autobahn) is a Mercedes.

No, Tesla's autonomous driving is not cutting edge.

Up to 60 km/h on the autobahn

Does not compute

You mean 160?

No, 60. seriously.

Unlike all other driving assistants you are allowed to let the car dive unsupervised on it's own. Since 60 km/h is sort of the minimum speed for the German autobahn, this is an autonomous traffic jam assistant – you can sleep, watch tv or do whatever you like during traffic jams < 60 km/h.
